technology

[storm osprey]

but these things are impressive for the price

[molten coral]

Would propably be cheaper for me to just buy the stuff here

[storm osprey]

sadly i think the drop ended for these

[molten coral]

ye it did

[storm osprey]

they also come in old library color

[wanton carbon]

wtf

[storm osprey]

only reason i didnt get this color is that the blue on this side, is red on the other

and i hate that

[wanton carbon]

nacho are these any good for u.

[molten coral]

meh

ugly yellow

[storm osprey]

you take that back

[molten coral]

no never

[storm osprey]

youre ugly

im sorry, that was rude, and a lie

[wanton carbon]

😂 woah

[storm osprey]

but rock on the other hand...

[wanton carbon]

yeah

[sand crest]

Yes

[storm osprey]

when thermals are everything

[lofty wigeon]

Yo guys

Can someone help me

I have a gaming laptop

[wanton carbon]

what u need

[lofty wigeon]

It has 8gb ram, GTX 1650, 120hz refrsh rate

[wanton carbon]

is that a razer one ?

[lofty wigeon]

I7 9th gen

No Asus

[wanton carbon]

ohhh

right

[lofty wigeon]

I can't run battlefield 5

Over 40 fpa

Fps

I did everything

[wanton carbon]

it’s probs the 1650

[lofty wigeon]

Lowest settings

[wanton carbon]

oh

[lofty wigeon]

1600*900 resolution

[wanton carbon]

do you have anything open in the background when playing bfv

[lofty wigeon]

Instead of 1920*1080 native

Nothing works

[molten coral]

Is it dual ram or single ram?

[lofty wigeon]

Nothing in background

It's single

I think

[molten coral]

Yeah that is the problem

BFV hugely beneftis from dual ram

The difference is like 50%

[lofty wigeon]

30-40 fps

Thats too low

Isn't it?

[wanton carbon]

for low settings ?

[lofty wigeon]

For lowest

[wanton carbon]

jeez

[molten coral]

Which laptop do you have?

model number

@lofty wigeon But if you can add another 8GB ram stick

[lofty wigeon]

I don't remember the model number

[wanton carbon]

@lofty wigeon But if you can add another 8GB ram stick
@molten coral I don’t think u can add ram in many laptops

[lofty wigeon]

I don't think I can add it

So I guess battlefield 5 is going in the bin

If already was

I never could run it

Over 40 fps

I wanted to snipe

[molten coral]

Yes but that is because you have single ram

[lofty wigeon]

I mean earlier I could actually

At around 50-65

But recently I can't get above 40

So guys

I am going to college next year

And I have a budget for a new laptop

A laptop because as a student I will need it in classes

[molten coral]

is this the one?

[lofty wigeon]

And it is portable

Yes

8gb ram

But*

And 1 tb hdd

[supple bane]

What's the budget?

[lofty wigeon]

And 237gb sdd

[supple bane]

I'd say get a notebook and a separate desktop if you want to play games

Gaming laptops are just downright bad ideas

[lofty wigeon]

Maximum 2k dollara

Dollars

[supple bane]

400 bucks on a chrome book, 1600 bucks on a gaming machine

[lofty wigeon]

1600 bucks on parts you mean?

[supple bane]

Yeah

[lofty wigeon]

I will have to build it right?

[wanton carbon]

laptops overheat easy don’t they ?

[molten coral]

Well you can get a pre built but it's cheaper to built it yourself

It's almost like lego

[lofty wigeon]

Yes they do rock

I have msi afterburner installed

96 degrees

While gaming

[wanton carbon]

WOAH

[lofty wigeon]

94-96

[molten coral]

also Tactician your current laptop has 2 ram slots so you could add another one

just fyi

[teal siren]

https://images-ext-1.discordapp.net/external/ttt0GDvuB6W9WeZWdmuw7V0GqJWqZlpzg1jDVDmcNrY/%3Fwidth%3D705%26height%3D671/https/media.discordapp.net/attachments/466475063001219082/755810800471375872/6f306af.jpg

[lofty wigeon]

😂

I feel that

Completely

Well guys if you do suggest that 1600/400 breakup

I am taking admission into engineering

[storm osprey]

you got a 2k budget?

[lofty wigeon]

So there will be heavy programming and software

[supple bane]

I'd guess a laptop at that price would net you like a rtx 2070. For 2000 dollars. Ontop of all the other issues that come along with gaming laptops like overheating, bad upgradability, and mobile parts. For 1600 bucks on a desktop you can get an rtx 3080 (well could if they were available)

[storm osprey]

you can easily split that 50/50 and get good for both

[molten coral]

Well you gonna need a heavy laptop then

[wanton carbon]

u could probs get the pc for less , I swear down 1.6 is more then enough ?

[lofty wigeon]

I mean can I make the desktop portable?

I mean I will mostly have it in college hostel

[storm osprey]

not portable for class

[lofty wigeon]

Yeah that is ok but I may have to change rooms

Or bring it home etc

So a portable setup is feasible?

[supple bane]

Its possible but it would be a pain in the ass I guess

[storm osprey]

you can make a small pc easily

SFF (small form factor) is fairly popular

[supple bane]

Still got monitors and shit tho dont forget

[lofty wigeon]

But in colleges here in India with hostels

[supple bane]

Idk, I just really have a hard time recommending gaming laptops, maybe look at a dell XPS or something

[lofty wigeon]

Not many people have pcs

Everyone prefer laptops

So at my budget I can get a good one right?

I mean with good cooling?

[supple bane]

Well the thing is, a gaming laptop has most of its budget blown on a graphics card, beefy cooling and a high refresh rate screen

An actual dedicated notebook blows its budget on things that make sense for what you will use it for

Like being super thin and lots of storage etc

[lofty wigeon]

No I meant in engineering colleges here

The gaming laptops serve a dual purpose

One gaming

And the other is heavy duty work

Liek coding, modelling,etc

I am not a variety gamer

[molten coral]

The Dell XPS is amazing

[lofty wigeon]

I hardly play any games currently

Battlefield 6 I plan to

Till yesterday I only played titanfall 2

[molten coral]

I currently own a XPS 15 and I just love it

[lofty wigeon]

Thats not a gaming laptop

[supple bane]

I think you are uplaying how Intensive coding and modeling is tho tbh. I wouldnt know why either of those requires too much horse power

[lofty wigeon]

They are not that much

But it's suggested to have at least 8 gb ram minimum on our laptopa

Laptopa

Laptops*

[supple bane]

Programming is like 0 load on the pc, modeling probably has a slight gpu load

[lofty wigeon]

And a good graphics processor

So I was thinking why overcomplicate and get a gaming laptop

Directly

I mean if hypothetically my laptop has 240hz refresh rate will there still be problems running battlefield?

Like currently

I found a laptop

Rtx 2060, 16 gb ram, 240hz refresh rate i7 10th gen

At 1900 dollars

Is that expensive?

For the specs

I mean if you had 2k dollars and what is the best setup you could create?

[storm osprey]

desktop?

usd?

[lofty wigeon]

Yeah a desktop

I mean the specs would be much better than this right?

[storm osprey]

ooooohhhhh yea

thats just a quick put together

replace with an intel build (prices are inflated atm) and youre probably pushing 1500

so thats 500 left for a mouse, keyboard, and monitor

[lofty wigeon]

Bruh that's insane

[storm osprey]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/9CFJFG

1530 with intels over inflated prices right now

[lofty wigeon]

But intel over amd right?

Still why bother lol

There is no way

Bringing a pc to college will be feasible

[storm osprey]

intel over amd for 1080p gaming or absolute "best gaming performance"

though if i were to build i would wait till oct 8th for amd to announce its next gen cpus

[lofty wigeon]

Not be*

[storm osprey]

which will generally be matching intel and likely cheaper and more efficient

[lofty wigeon]

What's the best laptop you can find for 2k dollars

[storm osprey]

atm intel is like 10% faster than 3600 for gaming, but intel is like 150-200 bucks more expensive

i honestly know jack poo about laptops

[lofty wigeon]

Bruh I don't think it's worth spending 2k dollars and not even getting the best specs

Unlike pc builds

Do you guys think

I should become a console peasantM

?

I mean getting a ps5 or xbox series x is much cheaper

[storm osprey]

these are all questions you have to answer yourself

id personally get a good enough laptop, and spend the rest on a pc

[lofty wigeon]

But the problem is I can't take the pc to college man

I guess I will wait till next year

If the prices of the gaming laptops here reduce along with rtx 3000 series then I can consider it lol

[storm osprey]

oof, its so concerning how many people think 3090 is a gaming card

[graceful pelican]

1 here already.... yup thats me

[turbid verge]

@storm osprey btw sniping a new laptop

found one here with a ryzen 7 4800HS, RTX 2060, 16 GB Ram, 512GB NVME has an extra slot for another NVME, 144hz IPS 1080p

for like 1300€

I guess conversation would be the same if it was in NA

maybe a bit less

gonna mostly use it for 3d stuff so rendering etc

[mild siren]

Well

You dont really need a very good laptop for college usually

And having an amazing pc at home is nice

[trim quarry]

Oh no

[mild siren]

Oh no

[mild siren]

@lofty wigeon

[dull solstice]

When you go too far, but have enough system memory to share with the GPU.

[mild siren]

Damn son

Yeah try to play the game at those settings

1fps

[glossy plinth]

ryzen 5 3600 and 1060 6gb is so common

im suprised i havent seen a build with r5 3600 with 1060 6fgb

[hollow elbow]

ps6 soon

[inner folio]

Guys what is different between PC3-12800 and PC3-12800u?

And can I use both of them at the same time?

[winged tapir]

@molten coral I am done 🙂

[latent light]

https://www.tweaktown.com/news/75291/amd-radeon-rx-6900-xt-specs-navi-21-gpu-with-16gb-could-cost-499/index.html

Only $500

[primal pier]

3 eyes

[supple bane]

angra, you are really starting to stretch the definition of eyes lol

[primal pier]

[glossy plinth]

[primal pier]

But you love your pc desk top having eyes tho right

[glossy plinth]

theres this setup that i found where both of the monitors are differently sized, it irritates me

[supple bane]

no. i hate it. since you have made those pictures. everytime i look at my pc it has some great beedy eyes glaring back at me

[wanton carbon]

😂

someone’s always watching ngl

no. i hate it. since you have made those pictures. everytime i look at my pc it has some great beedy eyes glaring back at me
@supple bane your setup is so cool tho , how did u do the desk

[supple bane]

wdym?

[wanton carbon]

like

where the pc is

hang on a sec

[mild siren]

Is g502 hero a good mouse for its price?

[glossy plinth]

g502 lightspeed

[wanton carbon]

did u have to cut the desk and then put it back together on the side near the glass

[mild siren]

Well idk I just wanted a cord

[wanton carbon]

I wish I got the g5o2

[mild siren]

Is it a good mouse in 2020

[wanton carbon]

I think so

a lot of people use it

[storm osprey]

a lot of people like it

i personally think its overrated and only "good" in specific scenarios

[strong breach]

this is pretty pog

i can fit the RTX3080 TUF to my case

didn't know that cage was removable

[storm osprey]

...

i told you that!

[strong breach]

HEY DON'T YOU DOT DOT DOT ME

[storm osprey]

....

[strong breach]

!bam

[storm osprey]

!margera

[strong breach]

anyways >:U

i don't need to live with a sucky Founders Edition

[molten coral]

No u

I still like the FE the most

[strong breach]

i mean yeah it looks the best

but what i care more is the performance

👀

[molten coral]

The best thing about it is that it doesn't have green leds in it

[strong breach]

lul true

[molten coral]

It's the only thing I hate about my 2080

[strong breach]

2080 is still such a good GPU stick with it

👀

[latent light]

RX 6900XT- 80 CU and 16GB at 18 Gbps and 256-bit memory bus

RX 6800 - 64 CU and 12GB at 17 Gbps and 192-bit memory bus

[violet plank]

sry to disappoint,but that's just a click bait rumor

[wanton carbon]

urm what the fuckkkk

that’s jus stupid

like fucking stupid

230 dollars for a keyboard

I mean it does have a metal frame and memory foam wrist wrest but it’s the same as the black widow elite

[molten coral]

For a good quality keyboard 200 is fine tbh

especially if you use it for 5+ years

[wanton carbon]

I’m hopping to get 3 + years out of mine

and then I might get a TKL keyboard from logitech if I can find one

mine was like 160 I think but I got it for my birthday

[lime raft]

I actually paid 200 for my blackwidow x chroma

Also have the battlefield 4 edition

[blazing spade]

I have my Corsair K95 RGB since +5 years ago and it was around 200 euros. Works like the first day 🙂

[storm osprey]

For a good quality keyboard 200 is fine tbh
@molten coral problem is that most gaming keyboards are not actual quality, rather you pay for features, lights, and branding (sponsorships, ads, etc)

[violet plank]

btw for you dot lovers

https://i.redd.it/os2zdy3yic431.jpg

[molten coral]

Yeah but still for 200 you can almost get a ''custom'' keyboard

[wanton carbon]

quality has to be , my razer keyboard is metal , has a thick ass cable that can be bent and stay in that position , and the synapse app is amazing

[storm osprey]

yea for 200 you can get something crazy good quality

zeal switches, some nice doubleshot pbt keycaps in whatever profile you want, a decent board, etc

[violet plank]

just get a corsair k95 shrug

[storm osprey]

noooooooo

[wanton carbon]

I would only ever get a razer keyboard or the Anne pro 2

[storm osprey]

anne 2 pro is probably objectively better quality and cheaper

[molten coral]

I've the logitech G810

[storm osprey]

and anne 2 pro isnt that highly regarded in the mechanical keyboard community

[wanton carbon]

unless I find a hotswappable one

the razer keyboards aren’t bad tho

[storm osprey]

well you can get a hotswappable for like 100 bucks...

[wanton carbon]

ik

[storm osprey]

and no, i wouldnt say razer keyboard or other gaming keyboad are bad

just not the quality their price tags suggest they are

[wanton carbon]

If the razer ones would be hotswappable I would DEFO get one

I would get loobed gatreon black switches

[storm osprey]

i love how you spelled lubed

[wanton carbon]

shush 😂

I didn’t know how to spell it , i don’t rlly say the word lubed

[storm osprey]

im sorry, i just thought it was actually funny

[wanton carbon]

lolll how

[storm osprey]

not in a laughing at you kind of way, it just caught me off guard

i had to question myself if thats how it was spelled too

[wanton carbon]

😂

I wonder what razer green switches lubed would sound like

EEEEE

wait is that even possible ?

[storm osprey]

yea you can lube any switch except optical afaik

its just a pain to take them apart

[wanton carbon]

wait rlly

[storm osprey]

i still want to lube/film my aliaz switches

[wanton carbon]

can u do me a favour ?

[storm osprey]

possibly

[wanton carbon]

can u try and find a vid that shows what the razer greens would sound like if lubed , my internet is very slow rn , plus I’m on mobile

[storm osprey]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQM9fscgaFg&ab_channel=quankeys

[violet plank]

wtf is it with amd and those fishy names

https://cdn.videocardz.com/1/2020/09/AMD-Dimgrey-Cavefish.png

[storm osprey]

dimgrey cavefish?

[molten coral]

The heck is lubing a keyboard

[violet plank]

pervs

[wanton carbon]

NO

it does sound weird

because if the name ... obvs , but it makes the clicks sound better

[violet plank]

dimgrey cavefish?
@storm osprey navi 23

[wanton carbon]

https://youtu.be/QQE04ZbKOus this sounds so nice - gatreon black

[storm osprey]

@molten coral lubricating keyboard, exactly as it sounds

you put lube, on the stem of the individual switches

[violet plank]

i don't watch keyboard porn

[molten coral]

[storm osprey]

complete pain in the ass, but it does make the switches sound and feel smoother

[wanton carbon]

i don't watch keyboard porn
@violet plank wtf man 🤣

[molten coral]

So it's like oil for your engine

[storm osprey]

uhhhh... kind of

[violet plank]

this is getting weird lol

[wanton carbon]

I’m 14 isuni , you can say that around me

[violet plank]

you're old enough

[wanton carbon]

meh

lolll

[molten coral]

Or the oil that stops the squeaky sounds from a door

[wanton carbon]

^

lubricating keyboards sounds so nice man

[storm osprey]

wd40?

[wanton carbon]

🤣

[molten coral]

Yes WD69

[wanton carbon]

[storm osprey]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xnxp0MeyGXM&ab_channel=KeyBonbon

another way to reduce switch noise

[molten coral]

The clicky clack sound is good

[violet plank]

what,lubing alpacas?poor animals

[molten coral]

It's pretty therapeutic

[supple bane]

Those white key caps on the black base are pretty dope ngl

On that razer keyboard

[wanton carbon]

that keyboard looks sick

[storm osprey]

theres a clack sound, and then theres the loose sound of switch tolerances being too high

films reduce the tolerances so you only get the quality clack

[wanton carbon]

the lubing vid ?

@supple bane

[supple bane]

Ye

[wanton carbon]

ohh

ikr

I might change my keycaps but idk much about keycaps

[supple bane]

Not really worth the money for me tbh

[storm osprey]

get tai hao keycaps

[wanton carbon]

I will probs get pudding ones

[storm osprey]

good budget keycaps

[wanton carbon]

pudding caps looks shit ngl

[storm osprey]

im borderline anti rgb so you can guess how i feel about them

[wanton carbon]

rgb :

can any keyboards keycaps be changed ?

[storm osprey]

no

though its very unlikely that you have a switch that isnt a standard cherry mx stem

standard mechanical stem

i know logitechs romer switches are not standard, and of course membrane keyboards arent a switch at all

then theres low profile switches

[wanton carbon]

mine look like this

I’m sorry about the dust , I haven’t played on it for about 2 weeks now

[storm osprey]

yea thats standard

[wanton carbon]

can they be changed then ?

[storm osprey]

yea

[wanton carbon]

sweet

[trim quarry]

What is that

For

[wanton carbon]

key caps

[storm osprey]

the green thing?

[trim quarry]

Yeah

[wanton carbon]

it’s a switch

for a light bulb

[trim quarry]

I see

[storm osprey]

the green part in particular is a stem, its a part of a mechanical keyboard switch

[trim quarry]

Actualy I'm blind

[storm osprey]

the black box around the green stem is housing

[wanton carbon]

is there a way to stop this sound tho , lemme see if the mic picks it up

[storm osprey]

i assume youre going to bring up a kind of high pitch "ping" sound

[wanton carbon]

I can hear the spring

In the enter button

[storm osprey]

so a letter key sounds fine to you?

[wanton carbon]

yeah

[storm osprey]

well you have a few potential problems for the sound on the enter key

[storm osprey]

LIKELY its your stabaliser bottoming out/rattling when you press it

hmm, are you talking that little crunchy sound?

[wanton carbon]

it’s not an issue because I don’t press enter every 10 seconds loll

I can just hear it every now and then

[storm osprey]

it sounds like something is loose

[molten coral]

I've the low profile switches and honestly they are awful to remove

Keyboard looks nice though and it's nice to type on

[storm osprey]

meh, ill stick with standard shit

i dont like messing with novelty stuff

[wanton carbon]

nacho what keyboard do u use

[storm osprey]

logitech g810

i used to have one too

[wanton carbon]

that looks nice

[storm osprey]

its... uhhh..

idk

[wanton carbon]

do Logitech have a gaming website or something , when I went into their website there was no rgb shit

[storm osprey]

it has proprietary romer g switches and the keycaps are shit laser etched that start breaking down

[wanton carbon]

it was just work keyboards

and weird mice that looked like hills

[molten coral]

Oh I mean I've the G815

[storm osprey]

the romer g tactile switches are decent

[molten coral]

Not the g810

I went from the G810 to the g815

[wanton carbon]

that looks slim as hell

Jeeez

I would break that from smashing my desk 😂

[storm osprey]

i didnt know logitech made a low profile keyboard like that

i assume romer g switches still

[molten coral]

Just don't smash your desk?

[wanton carbon]

nacho

when I get pissed I do anything that’s possible

[molten coral]

Yeah they are G switches Nyphon

They are pretty decent

[wanton carbon]

I have broken 2 draws so far on my desk due to punching them

[molten coral]

I don't get the "Im mad im going to smash things"

It's just a game

[storm osprey]

nacho just calmly says "no"

[wanton carbon]

Idk is its me at this age ?

or I do get angry at games In general

[storm osprey]

i get angry

but i only get "break things" angry when im playing ranked and lose to bs reasons

[wanton carbon]

I don’t break my mouse or keyboard or anything I just bang the desk or the sidearm on my chair or if I lost because of me being stupid I punch the draws

[primal pier]

[wanton carbon]

oh for fuck sake

!ban @primal pier

that’s very nice

what are the dimensions of that desk , that looks like the size I need 😂

[teal siren]

beeeeeg boi

[molten coral]

200x80

[latent light]

@strong breach you're gonna bottleneck the fuck out of a 3080 at 1080p even if you have an i9-10900K

It's only gonna be at like 60% utilization lol

[molten coral]

Hess is going to buy a new monitor iirc

[wanton carbon]

what does iirc mean

[molten coral]

if I recall correctly

[wanton carbon]

ohhhh

[latent light]

Also theres gonna be a 20GB variant of the 3080, Gigabyte confirmed this

[molten coral]

But who needs 20GB of vram lol

[wanton carbon]

nacho your main moniter so big

I bet FS2020 looks sick on it

[latent light]

Future games are gonna use more vram

[molten coral]

If you don't do anything than gaming 20GB seems super overkill

hmm alright

[wanton carbon]

me with 6GB

vram

or 8

wait how much does a 1660 super have ?

[latent light]

6GB

[wanton carbon]

oh

yeah I have 6GB then

is 6GB good for Cold War ?

I rlly wanna get Cold War when it comes on sale

[latent light]

I'm sure cold war will have lower requirements than modern warfare

[wanton carbon]

hmm rlly

[weary trail]

yeah

[wanton carbon]

how

[prime jasper]

has anybody tried the new ea desktop

[wanton carbon]

nope

[lofty wigeon]

I got the beta email

Didn't try yet

Looks dope tbh

Improvement over origin

[latent light]

@wanton carbon because cold war uses an older engine

[wanton carbon]

ohhh

[latent light]

Same one as bo3 and bo4

[wanton carbon]

I hope it isn’t full of sweats

[violet plank]

If you don't do anything than gaming 20GB seems super overkill
@molten coral look at this

https://www.hardwareluxx.de/community/attachments/modernwarfare_2020_09_23_10_11_06_302-jpg.533120/

22gb allocation,20gb used

[wanton carbon]

can’t wait to get my pc back mannn

it comes back in 2 days

[violet plank]

btw nvidia just officially confirmed 3090=Titan

that and max gain of 10-15% over the 3080 in gaming as well

early adopting and it's perks

https://videocardz.com/newz/geforce-rtx-3080-sees-increasing-reports-of-crashes-in-games

[latent light]

Galax confirmed 20GB 3080 and the 3060

They're comparing the 3060 to the 2080/2080 Super

[wanton carbon]

A 3060 HUHHHHHHHH

@latent light when was a 3060 ANNOUNCED

[latent light]

Not yet it was leaked by Galax

No official specs yet

[wanton carbon]

ohhhh

[latent light]

Seems like RTX 3000 series is crashing for a lot of people and it may be a V-BIOS or a silicon issue

The cards are boosting too high with inadequate power limits by default and throwing stability out the door

[wanton carbon]

wonder how much it’s gonna be

[latent light]

There's a fuck ton of articles and forums with people having 3080 problems and the card has only been out a week

[silk echo]

Will i bottleneck my CPU (2600X) with a 3080?

[glossy plinth]

uhhhhhhhhhhhh

no?

[silk echo]

seems professional enough

[latent light]

@silk echo if you have 4K display then no

If 1080p or 1440p there will be a huge bottleneck

[silk echo]

so settle on 3070?

[latent light]

Still a bottleneck

RTX 3000 series is aimed at 4K

[glossy plinth]

@latent light Ryzen 7 3700x bottleneck 3080? or nah

[latent light]

Just depends on resolution

[glossy plinth]

1080p

[latent light]

Huge bottleneck

[glossy plinth]

aight

[silk echo]

Yeah but with a 3070 its still gonna be alright, its not gonna a waste of horse power?

[glossy plinth]

ryzen 9 here i come

[latent light]

That won't help at all

If not make it worse lol

[glossy plinth]

what even is the "perfect" cpu for the 3080

all i can think of is r9 3990x or i9-10th gen

[latent light]

Even the i9-10900K bottlenecks the 3080 at both 1080p and 1440p

[glossy plinth]

wtf

[silk echo]

Yeah thats true

It just lets loose at 4K tho

[latent light]

Next gen Ryzen expected to have 20% single-core performance gains over Ryzen 3000 with IPC and clockspeeds considered, I'd expect it to remove a lot of the bottlenecks

[silk echo]

So what, no point in getting 3070?

Should i get the 2080 super?

[glossy plinth]

2080ti*

[silk echo]

your telling me which gpu im getting?

[latent light]

3070 demolishes the 2080Ti

For less than half the cost

[silk echo]

ha

bold of you to assume that the price they showed is gonna be the actual price

[glossy plinth]

wonder why they even made the 2080ti so much even tho 3070 is cheaper and faster

[silk echo]

here in israel its gonna inflate by at least 100 bucks more

im just not sure if its worth to spend the extra cash and bottle neck my CPU but future proof my GPU and go with the 3070 or just kinda chill and get the 2080 Super

[latent light]

You have a R5 2600X and using a 1080p monitor, you'll even bottleneck a 2070 Super/2080

[silk echo]

Using a 2k monitor

[latent light]

I wouldn't get anything more powerful than a 3070

[silk echo]

Not now, no

But whats a better choice?

[glossy plinth]

lol

[silk echo]

Future proof is prob the answer, even tho im bottle necking the CPU a bit

[latent light]

3070 comes out 15th of October, I would wait until the 28th of that month for the Navi2 announcement

Hoping for a price war

[glossy plinth]

gonna be suprised 3080 during black friday sale

[silk echo]

a price war will take at least 2 months for prices to drop

[latent light]

Depends, AMD is very aggressive when it comes to pricing

They could force Nvidia to drop prices

[mild siren]

Well

There is no actual rush

[silk echo]

They could be aggressive but price drops are not immediate

[mild siren]

Cards will be in stable supply at some point

[glossy plinth]

gonna upgrade my 850watt psu to 1500 since 3080 might not handle my psu rn

[latent light]

LOL

[mild siren]

LOL

[glossy plinth]

?

i saw some corsair psu thats 1500 wats, perfect for 3080 upgrade

[latent light]

850w is recommended for both the 3080 and 3090

[silk echo]

wait the 3080 wouldnt handle the psu

what

[glossy plinth]

i dunno, 3080 seems pretty powerful to me so i mguessing it takes up alotta power

gonna upgrade psu to 1500 watts just incase tho

[silk echo]

1500 is extremely overkill

[glossy plinth]

better to be safe than sorry

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[latent light]

No point

[silk echo]

its not safe or sorry

its dumb

[glossy plinth]

plus i need a 1500 psu

upgrading to a ryzen 9

[silk echo]

still no need

1000w will do you just fine, and thats future proofing

blow your money on me if you got nothing to spend it on

[latent light]

I've seen a overclocked R9 295X2 run on a 650w psu, which is a dual AMD graphics card that is rated for like 500W tdp

[glossy plinth]

need that 1500 watt for a ryzen 9 3900x

[silk echo]

Hey, if your locked on that 1500w, theres nothing we can do or say to change your mind

[latent light]

Ryzen 9 3900X only consumes like 150 watts peak under full load

[silk echo]

enjoy wasting ridiculous money on something thats useless

[glossy plinth]

plus

the extra watts wouldnt hurt

[silk echo]

they hurt your wallet

[glossy plinth]

gonna be worth tho

[silk echo]

No

I can agree on a 1000w psu, nothing more

[latent light]

A platinum/titanium 850W PSU will run any configuration even if you have dual graphics cards

[silk echo]

Yup

[glossy plinth]

the extra watts wouldnt hurt

[silk echo]

they hurt your wallet

want extra watts? get a 1000w psu

you get extra watts and save good money, win win

[wanton carbon]

how can 850 watts run anything ?

[silk echo]

Most PC's dont push 700w

[wanton carbon]

I have a 450 watt

[glossy plinth]

1500 watts

is

[wanton carbon]

damn

I feel like a wus compared to you 1k users

[storm osprey]

1k users?

[wanton carbon]

1k psu

users

[storm osprey]

ohhh

bleh

[wanton carbon]

lol

I wanna get a new pfp when my computer comes back

is there any photo editing apps anyone know a

[mild siren]

Photoshop

[wanton carbon]

[storm osprey]

hes not wrong though

[wanton carbon]

hmm

I will get photoshop then

[storm osprey]

there are less powerful, but free versions

i remember gimp and paint.net

[wanton carbon]

yeah

[primal pier]

Nice nacho noice 3 eyed bois

[storm osprey]

nachos avatar is back to happy

[wanton carbon]

yay

[prime jasper]

Guys, I need some advice. I’m running on a RTX2080TI with a Ryzen 5 3600 and 48Gb ram... Not getting the fluid performance one would expect

[wanton carbon]

OH FUCK OFF

😂

[primal pier]

[wanton carbon]

angra pls 🙏

[primal pier]

Had to do it to nacho

[storm osprey]

@prime jasper and your expectations are?

[prime jasper]

Was hoping to play stutter free... Getting between 85 and 100 FPS, but stutter

On a 3440x1440 screen

[wanton carbon]

what cpu does nacho use

bet he is an intel fan

[storm osprey]

pretty sure its a 9700k

[latent light]

@prime jasper 48GB ram is a weird configuration

I don't think dual channel mode works with that amount

Also having multiple sticks of ram with various capacities isn't good

Don't pair 4GB, 8GB or 16GB sticks together

[storm osprey]

i figured he was trollling

[wanton carbon]

who that guy who has 48 gb ram

[storm osprey]

yea

[wanton carbon]

how

[supple bane]

i guess because its just a weird combination of hardware and he didnt really reply

[wanton carbon]

fair enough

[supple bane]

idk who pairs a 1200 pound gpu with a 150 pound cpu

[wanton carbon]

I was gonna ask if that cpu is good enough for a 2080 ti

but I thought it would sound a bit dumb saying it

[fallen harbor]

it's probably a bit too much yes, not by far

it could be worse

[lime raft]

3090 here allready cost 1900

geez

[violet plank]

so ppl camping microcenter overnight already to get a 3090

is this a us thingy?

maybe @storm osprey is secretly one of them

[prime jasper]

@latent light I’ll try with 32 (2x16gb 3200) although benchmarking thought me that dual channel is ok in my system.

[supple bane]

@violet plank have you ordered a new card btw?

[violet plank]

nope

waiting for navi

[supple bane]

ahh, i remember now yes

[wanton carbon]

when’s this 3060 coming

[supple bane]

i only know one person that has actually got their hands on a 3000 series card

[violet plank]

guess there will be a shitload of rma's with ampere

unless they downclock the gpu and memory with a driver update

[supple bane]

I haven't seen anything about them being unstable

[violet plank]

read here for example

https://videocardz.com/newz/geforce-rtx-3080-sees-increasing-reports-of-crashes-in-games

most likely the biggest issues seems the gddr6x

[supple bane]

Makes sense

I haven't been in the tech space for long so I haven't seen really any NEW hardware be introduced, so I assume stuff like this happens all the time?

[wanton carbon]

I’m back

[violet plank]

with nvidia yes lol

[supple bane]

When I say new hardware I mean like a different memory etc

[violet plank]

2080ti start was the same mess

[supple bane]

Crazy new power connector etc

[violet plank]

no reports for fe cards so far,or i haven't read any of it

best binned chips there anyways

and pt is strictly 320w

[supple bane]

Question, do you think a 2080 super on a 550w power supply would be a recipe for disaster?

[violet plank]

the gddr6x are getting 105 C without oc

throttle at 110

die at 120

[wanton carbon]

wtf

[violet plank]

2080 and 550 is fine

[supple bane]

But the super?

[violet plank]

depends on the cpu

[supple bane]

Provided I have a 65w cpu

[violet plank]

i mean if it's a trash psu ofc not

else it can run a 2080 super with an 9900k non oc

[supple bane]

Basically this is a massive maybe, but I MIGHT POSSIBLY be getting a 2080 super for super cheap off a friend

[violet plank]

ah for your rig ?

[supple bane]

It's a real big if at the moment, but he proposed it to me and I was Interested in the whole power supply thing

Yeah for my rig

[violet plank]

2700x?

[supple bane]

2600

Most likely it wont happen as I will hopefully have a job by the time this ever becomes a reality, and if I have a job fuck a 2080 super lol, 3080 super here I come

[violet plank]

hmm

bit borderline,but it will work

[wanton carbon]

Most likely it wont happen as I will hopefully have a job by the time this ever becomes a reality, and if I have a job fuck a 2080 super lol, 3080 super here I come
@supple bane what ages can people in the uk get jobs ?

[supple bane]

16

[wanton carbon]

fuck sake

[supple bane]

I've said this like 4 times now lol

[wanton carbon]

I thought it was 15

have u

oh

[violet plank]

power draw with a 2080 super and your rig would be 500w

that's overcalculated tho

for spikes

still a tad borderline

did you glue your psu ?

can't recall

[supple bane]

Yeah I stuck L brackets on the side of it lol

So I could mount it to the underside of my desk

[violet plank]

you'll gonna need a new one anyways sooner or later,more like sooner i guess

i got a spare seasonic 750 titanium

pay the shipping

on the other hand i don't wanna see that beauty glued

[supple bane]

I dont have the money at the moment even for shipping. And I dont need it right now. Thanks for the offer tho

Yeah I wouldnt enjoy wrecking a nice psu like that either

I just brought a vr headset so I'm officially broke

[violet plank]

guess shipping would be expensive af anyways cause it's real heavy

[supple bane]

It would actually be in the desk with all my other hardware but my AIO threw a spanner in my plans

When I laid all the hardware out I cad I didnt think about how flexible the tubes were on the aio

Or rather how flexible they weren't lol

So it wouldn't go where I planned, and I had to mount it weird and the psu would no longer fit inside

[violet plank]

imagine doing this to that psu

https://www.newegg.com/seasonic-prime-ultra-titanium-ssr-750tr-750w/p/N82E16817151197

[supple bane]

So my dad came up with the idea of putting it underneath and it worked real nice

[violet plank]

you could have done it without glue tho

[supple bane]

How? Lol

[violet plank]

double angle brackets

the same again going under the psu

[supple bane]

Pfht, I would have to have got some custom ones made probably

If I wanted it to be secure

[violet plank]

dunno how to describe it lol

[supple bane]

Ik what you mean because I also thought about doing it

[violet plank]

but?

[supple bane]

Like I said, I probably would have had to get custom brackets made for it to be secure e

[violet plank]

you can buy those

https://real4wd.com/store/common/controls/thumbnail.ashx?size=600&image=/store/assets/catalog/parts/RCSK17368-4.jpg

[supple bane]

My original idea was to use string and make a sort of hammock for it to sit in

But I was worried it would fall out of said hammock soo,

[violet plank]

you could open it and drill screw holes

the psu

[supple bane]

We also discussed that option lol

[violet plank]

lol

[supple bane]

I decided I was too likely to kill the psu

Or my self

[wanton carbon]

u could’ve made a little shelf for it to sit on

[violet plank]

https://www.tecnosystemi.com/public/img/gestionesezioni/giotto sg_215201915026.jpg

[wanton carbon]

like a metal bar shelf so the fan can still get air

[violet plank]

this would be perfect

[supple bane]

Maybe. Too late now tho I guess

[violet plank]

ye lol

glue is forever

[supple bane]

This is why I dislike big projects like this one. Every minute detail takes so much thinking and discussing. It's just so much effort

I spent way too long sitting there and starting and wood and computer parts lol

[wanton carbon]

it looks sick tho u can’t complain

[violet plank]

so no future career in engineering i guess

[supple bane]

Heh, nope

[violet plank]

world needs more engineers

as i am lol

[supple bane]

Wait

Network engineer

[violet plank]

so?

[supple bane]

That's actually the Career I want to go into

Network engineer or server admin. Something along those lines

What context is your engineer job role in?

[violet plank]

well,engineer is engineer,you have to build a shit ton of stuff,no matter what in the end

network

[supple bane]

Oh heh

[violet plank]

you can start with admin and change over,easier

[supple bane]

Hmm. You might prove a useful asset to me in 6 months

I'm probably gonna need some advice like

[violet plank]

oh oh

[supple bane]

I'm still unsure what I will do for higher education tbf, if I was to get an apprenticeship I could become a network engineer in 9 months ish. Or I could go to college

I'm banking towards apprenticeship, I love the idea of getting to work, learn and get paid

Time will tell, this whole covid thing makes all this stuff uncertain

[violet plank]

wtf 9 months?

[supple bane]

You can get an apprenticeship here the moment you leave high school, which is 9 months ish for me

[wanton carbon]

Network engineer or server admin. Something along those lines
isn’t that engineering college useful to you , the one like 10 mins away ?

[violet plank]

3 years fulltime or 4 years besides working here to get the degree

[supple bane]

They focus on cars

Cars are very different to ethernet cables

[violet plank]

[wanton carbon]

oh

[violet plank]

https://www.routerfreak.com/how-to-become-a-network-engineer/

shitload of work

[wanton carbon]

Cars are very different to ethernet cables
@supple bane are u gonna work for BT

[supple bane]

I'm also thinking about doing a course like, some time soon. There is one called comptia network plus or sommot, and I had a look at the topics and I know 90% of it already, I feel if I can do that at 15 it will look pretty good

Ah, that's mentioned in that link

Not that specific course but similar ideas

[violet plank]

you can test you knowledge going to the LTT discord server and read the networking #

just read

to get an idea

[supple bane]

Yeah maybe that's not a bad idea, although I'm very interested in networking my knowledge is kinda limited. I know the basic stuff like yanno, what basic terms like WAN and DNS etc mean, but beyond that I'm kinda lost

I'm doing a GCSE in computer science at school and they do a great job of teaching how all this stuff works like a detailed look into different processes in the internet and encryption etc, but they suck at teaching you how you would actually set that up

[violet plank]

that's what i meant with shitload of work (gaining knowledge)

[supple bane]

Like I could write 2 pages on how two devices on totally different locations can share data, but be fucked if I know how to actually set that up lol

Heck I had a hard time getting mine and my dads pc to be friends lol

[violet plank]

i remember lol

welp gotta go,early day tomorrow,gn8

[junior mesa]

Hello guys! I need help with some graphic recommendations for BF1, The game runs just fine with medium graphic configuration, but I was hoping someone could give me advice on how to balance graphics and performace.
My pc has:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2500U with Radeon Vega Mobile Gfx, 4 Cores
GPU: Radeon RX 560 X Series
RAM: 16 GB
And idk what else to put here

[storm osprey]

personally i think the game looks just fine with everything low but textures

[glossy plinth]

560 to a 590

[storm osprey]

so more 3080 stock dropped today, that was a bust

[junior mesa]

😮 I dream for the day I get a work and can afford a gaming pc

[glossy plinth]

gaming pc's r cheap and faster now

[junior mesa]

I know! but I'm a student and live in Latin-America, kinda hard to afford one hahahah

[glossy plinth]

ah

[junior mesa]

Ohh btw, I have a question. I recently bought a mouse Logitech G403 Hero, I haven't had this issue with any other game, nor R6, Bf4, Destiny 2, CS:GO, etc... When I set the mouse with 1000hz response, the game mouse-input gets wreked. I though it was the Raw-imput setting in-game, but it's not, I solved it a couple days ago when I lowered the response to 150hz

This happens in BF1, any idea of why it happens?

[storm osprey]

never heard of that problem

also, idk if mods are going to allow your name

[junior mesa]

Oh that's true, Imma change it

[storm osprey]

"Blank names & disruptive or unusual unicode characters such as zalgo aren't allowed. "

im just the warning guy, i really dont care

[junior mesa]

Hahahah ik, it was my name in Japanese, but'll see if it worked

Yeah, now i'm Rickss

[storm osprey]

whats up ricksssss

so when you put your mouse to 1000hz you get lag or what?

[glossy plinth]

all i can recommend is

[junior mesa]

Yeah, lag imput

[glossy plinth]

dont buy the corsair rgb glaive pro

doubleclicks so much

[junior mesa]

I could record it, but Idk how to show it to you

[glossy plinth]

from personal experience

[junior mesa]

from personal experience
@glossy plinth lmao

[glossy plinth]

dont buy it

not worth $70

anybody has by any chance any experience in solving a case of two pcs not being able to interconnect in a game from one same net?

im trying to play a game with my sister and we cannot play at the same time because we are on the same net, but it only happens in one single game

and im not sure what is what i should do in order to fix something like this

i could find nothing useful on google

so it's the VRAM

that costs a bunch then

20gb RTX3080 will be like 1200€ then

Platinum grade

it's a waste it really is

[violet plank]

as long as they don't solve the crash problem i wouldn't buy any ampere model rn

[strong breach]

the crashing if you go above 2Mhz?

[violet plank]

the boosting yes

2Mhz

dont forget to upgrade to a 1500 psu before upgrading

or close to that

this generation made 4K gaming at 60fps possible though 👌

Must upgrade 1070ti to 3070... It will offload from my 8600k

but my tv can do 120Hz

gonna take another 10 years til 4k gaming becomes the new 1080p imo

1440p panels are so expensive lol..I need to search around for one

[violet plank]

1440p expensive?

[coarse nimbus]

compared to what I'm used to spending for a 1080p

Christ I thought the 144hz was expensive a couple years back lol.. still not sure that was a necessary buy

[violet plank]

i could not ever go back from 144Hz

You just need to have the necessary hardware to get those fps numbers
